Turn your webcam into a fun photobooth

Snap is a webcam app that stands out for being extremely easy to use and letting you get fun results in no time at all.

Once installed, launch the program and you’ll immediately see the image taken by your webcam. Snap automatically detects your webcam and offers you all its tools to begin playing around. We say “play” because this is what you’re going to do with Snap – don’t expect to create serious, professional photo collages like you would do with other graphic editors.

Snap is a fun tool, so it’s intended to obtain funny photos that you can use to play a joke on a friend, create an original avatar for your favourite IM client or design a custom greeting card. The app includes a variety of filters and effects to apply to your photos, such as night vision, mirror effect, do I look fat?, clipart and animations. Using them is a cinch: just select a given filter, see what it looks like in the preview window and click on the snap button to capture the image if you like the result. Snapshots are automatically saved in a specified folder, but unfortunately you can’t select their size or format.

Once you’ve taken your fun images, you can open them in whatever app you liike, and make further edits or simply email or print them. Bear in mind that you can’t do this within the app – it only lets you share on Facebook. All in all, Snap is an easy-to-use application that can provide hours of fun. Give it a try and you won’t be disappointed.

Using your webcam, Snap lets you take snapshots of you and your friends and, then add stickers, speech bubbles, and wacky fun-house filters. The fun doesn’t end there. With the click of a button, Snap allows you to instantly share your snapshots on the internet using the popular photo-sharing site Photobucket!

Add some personality to your snaps with stickers! We’ve got funny creatures with outfits, accessories and more! We’ve also included speech and thought bubbles so that you can really add expression to your snaps.
